Forus is planning a solar park in the Kajasuo area of Hamina

The power plant would generate approximately 55 gigawatt-hours of renewable electricity per year. This would be equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 25,000 apartment units.

The commercial operation of the power plant is set to begin in 2026-2028.
